Unlike traditional exhibitions, 'Scary Monsters' was designed and installed like a carnival ghost-train ride complete with scary sound effects. It featured paintings, sculptures, photographs, ceramics, carvings, a preserved (dead) toad, and a painting suspended by a spider's web.

Divided into three chambers, the exhibition explored the themes 'creepy creatures', 'nightmares' and 'demons, devils and dark places'. Children were encouraged to wander through the spine tingling dark chambers and explore the spooky displays.
